Golly . . . . I thought I remembered posting some bitters bottles, but when I searched I guess I looked for a thread I had started. Of course, it was not my thread.

It seems to me that some threads are worthwhile as references, for new collectors especially, and therefore should be kept alive. On the other hand, the last post to the original bitters thread was eleven months ago.

You are correct in assuming that some readers will have acquired new examples; plus, old acquisitions may be newly photographed; plus, there will be new subscribers to the forum.

So, what do you think is the best thing to do: replicate and expand in this new thread, or revive the "zombie" thread?

IT"S ALLLLLLLLIIIVVVVVVVVE! You could label this one part two or bring the oldun back? I know some threads get really long and are so full of pics they take awhile to look thru.

This is not the Owens bitters but the rarest of the Owens bottles. Only 4 known.
